These resources have already made a huge difference in our daily routines and learning environment.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first walked in and saw the bright, inviting rug, their faces lit up with excitement. It instantly became our new gathering space for read-alouds, group discussions, and morning meetings. One of my favorite moments so far was during a recent storytime — the students cozied up on the rug, leaned in close, and shared thoughtful connections with the book. The sense of community was stronger than ever.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving my students not just supplies, but a more welcoming, organized, and inspiring place to learn every day.

Now, all students are becoming more and more comfortable and relaxed with our cushions. We have even found that we can sit as partners, because they are so big!\r\nRecently, our room arrangement has changed and allowed for the larger cushions to be placed in old computer cubbies.

Students do not get uncomfortable raising hands to get help any longer. I am vigilant in looking to see who is on red and needs assistance.\r\nWe are also LOVING the sticky notes.
